To compete with streaming music services such as Spotify, Apple Music, or TIDAL, Google shut down Google Play Music, a service that was not getting users, and bet everything on YouTube Music. And it looks like the move is going well, as it is the fastest-growing online music platform.

YTMDesktop, an unofficial client for YouTube Music on the PC desktop

YouTube Music Desktop is an unofficial app that makes it easy to play music from Google's service from your PC desktop. With a clean and simple design, it lets users enjoy the extensive music catalog offered by YouTube Music without having to open a browser, as a standalone app.

To use it, we will have to register as users with our Google account and choose at least five of our favorite artists to get a user experience more tailored to our interests. These are the main features and functions offered:

• Support for PC multimedia control keys.
• Desktop notifications.
• Bar with playback control.
• Background music playback.
• Access to song lyrics.
• Automatic update.
• Miniature player.
• Access to music videos.

In addition, it has the possibility of remote control thanks to the YTMDesktop Remote app, enabling you to control the playback of all songs from your Android.
